Internships
The OCCC’s internship program provides a unique opportunity to shadow Deputy Clerks as they serve the public, interacting with customers, attorneys, judges and other justice partners on a daily basis in the largest and busiest courthouse in the state. Providing students the opportunity for career exploration and development, the program exposes them to real-world experiences and helps them expand their knowledge base and learn new skills. Further, it provides valuable networking opportunities with the numerous judicial partners and other community stakeholders.
During their internship, students are provided the opportunity to spend time in several OCCC divisions and sit in on live court proceedings. Internship positions are unpaid/voluntary and are typically part-time. Most of our college interns attend local universities, having been recommended to our office by university advisors. Additionally, the program affords the OCCC an opportunity to bring fresh energy and new ideas into our office and potentially build a career path for the intern. Over the years, several of our interns have gone on to become full-time OCCC Deputy Clerks.
Please note: There are a limited of spots available at any given time of the year.
